title: [The effect of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in the diet on the indices of lipid metabolism in patients with ischemic heart disease].
abstract: To study the dietetic effect of canned natural Ivasi herring, containing up to 10% of eicosopentenic acid, the blood serum was analyzed in 37 patients with coronary heart disease at Vladivostok City Hospital and in 73 patients at the Regional Cardiological Sanatorium. Lipid characteristics of the blood serum (total cholesterol, alpha- and beta-cholesterol, beta-lipoproteins) were comparatively studied in 5 groups of subjects: normal subjects, two control groups (who did not receive the dietetic product) and two groups who received Ivasi herring. A favourable effect on all above parameters was recorded in more than 50% of patients in the sanatorium. The frequency of favourable shifts was higher in patients who received Ivasi herring than in the controls, the highest changes concerned beta-cholesterol. No significant improvement was recorded in coronary patients during the acute period (the group at the City Hospital). The results of the investigation have evidenced the expediency of using canned Ivasi herring in the diet therapy and prevention of coronary heart disease during the rehabilitation period.
